Federer and Gauff are part of an agency at Team 8, which the Swiss giant founded with his agent Tony Godsick in 2013.

“Yes and no,” Goff said. I feel like Roger has always been like that good Regardless of me, even though we have the Team8 connection.
He is a good person and not only for me, but I see him with other players as well. He is one of those types of people.
No matter how many times you talk to him, you’re still kind of in awe of his presence and what he’s done on and off the field.
That 2020 Australian Open was memorable for Gauff, not only after reaching the fourth round, but his early victory against Venus Williams.
The 2023 US Open champion also famously failed Williams In his Wimbledon debut in 2019, where he also reached the fourth round.
